Just received my ghost white radius downloaded the software update but I can't install it on Windows 10 it's just not doing anything apart from a spinning circul can any one help please all so how long do I charge the radius for

Thanks Terry

I know this will sound like a dumb question, but since you just received your Ghost White Radius, did you check the version on your device first? If it's version 18, that's the latest there is anyway.

It is done! the buy button has been hit. Now the very very long wait for it to show up. Still wish someone in this big ... city would sell them, but at least i can order one. The wait it already killing me. lol
I feel you brother! I had the wait last month when I ordered my Radius on opening day - don't worry it'll get there though.

And I enjoyed that wait so much, I decided to torture myself with a 4 to 6 week for the Stealth Ti on Black Friday! I'm a glutton for punishment.

Then at the moment, you don't have a need to update your Radius as it's on the most current version. The software update drivers do download on Windows 10 as that's what I have and it wasn't difficult to do. Perhaps just wait until the next update comes out and try again. In the meantime, your Ghost White should have come with a label in the box telling you how to register for software update notifications. Make sure you do that, so you'll get notifications in the future.

This is why I love the Radius and Provape in Particular:

I'm on a Co-Op thread here on ECF and all is going really smoothly. Should have 6 boxes of Nauty BVC's (1.6 ohm) winding their way to me in a few days and through the bulk buying, I paid only about $9/box! But that's not my point. One of the buyers recently posted they have 5 iStick 30's all of which have batteries that have gone south. 5. That's FIVE. And of course there's nothing this person can do about fixing them. I was SO tempted to suggest they get a Radius next time, but I was good and kept my trap shut. Tempted mightily, I was. But the last thing I need or want to do is start a Provari war. Still......was so friggin' tempted.:evil:

Most of our shops here are on a fb forum. I asked there if any shops would be selling it and they all said no. One side they might if people asked enough. Well hell by the time that happens I will have already had it. Lol People here are into the cheap China stuff that they swap and trade daily. Ugh

Even The Vapor Bar in Katy? I think their stores carry it.

This may be obvious - but did you try right clicking and running as Administrator? Or right clicking and selecting Properties and checking the Run this program in Compatibility Mode? I'm not sure if Windows 10 offers these options, because my Windows 10 machine is down at the moment.

A few days ago, there was a thread on the general forum entitled "why I went back to smoking". The reason? They got tired of replacing their China mods every couple of months! :facepalm:
I was soooo tempted. But I kept quiet like a good little boy...:vapor:

Ya see, I might have asked them at that point whether they had any good stuff that they wanted to sell?!?

The Vapor Bar carries the Provape line-up - 2.5, P3, and Radius. Bought my first Provari from them (P3 Ti) - and the store has knowledgeable people who care. Schell, the owner is strongly into advocacy and has several stores throughout Texas - and also soon to have one opening on the East Coast.

Huh they are not listed in provapes site. The one that is is vapor sense and I really don't care for them. The one shop I thought would have it by me was vaporesence but they said if they will it would be a while. They really have no one asking for them.

Yes - I'm not sure why they don't list the Provape devices on their website. The B&M stores do carry them, though.

I've bought some iStick 20's, 30's and 40's as I use these to give to people wanting to stop smoking. I even have an iStick 30 as I needed to try it and figure out the menu. I know of two that broke, one started getting hot, the other just stopped working. I know they aren't very old and not being used on a regular basis so I was surprised when I heard they broke. Mine is still going strong but it's not in a daily use and I'm very careful with all my vape equipment.

My wife's iStick 30 started autofiring the first week. The B&M kindly replaced it and she hasn't had another issue. But like you, she only uses it occasionally now - preferring her Provaris...and now her Radius.
